Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif de liaison entre un implant (1) et un pilier (800) droit ou courbé. Ce dispositif est fabriqué au moyen d'une vis (400) de serrage et d'un anneau (500) d'écartement. Dans le pilier (800) est pratiquée une entrée (830) et, à proximité de la base du pilier (800), ladite entrée (830) est élargie par une rainure (835) radiale. Dans la rainure (835) s'appuie l'anneau (500) d'écartement que traverse la vis (400) de serrage dont la tête (410) est plaquée contre l'anneau (500) d'écartement et dont la douille (430) filetée est insérée dans l'orifice (21) fileté de l'implant (1). La vis (400) de serrage peut être insérée, avec son anneau (500) d'écartement et la tête (410), la première dans l'entrée (830), par dessous. L'implant (1) peut présenter une forme de logement à asymétrie de rotation sur le cône intérieur - de préférence un logement polygonal - et le pilier (800) a avantageusement une contre-forme complémentaire de la forme du logement. On utilise un tourne-vis spécial pour le vissage.

Abstract: An assembly discharges pre-formed slices of mincemeat through an outlet (5). The slices are placed on a skewer alternating with thin slices of non-minced meat forming a doner kebab. The diameter of the discharging minced meat esp. can be varied. The assembly incorporates a memory device and an input interface (21) specifying the thickness diameter, and quantities in which the portions are to be discharged. The mincemeat descends through a filling pipe (3) to the height-adjustable discharge output (5). Also claimed is an operating process in which the output tube rises and falls with each discharge cycle.

Abstract: A speech coding method which can code a speech signal at a bit rate of 8 kb/s or less by a comparatively small amount of calculation to obtain a good sound quality. An autocorrelation of a synthesis signal synthesized from a codevector of an excitation codebook (140) and a linear predictive parameter of an input speech signal is corrected using an autocorrelation of a synthesis signal synthesized from a codevector of an adaptive codebook (120) and a linear predictive parameter and a cross-correlation between the synthesis signal of the codevector of the adaptive codebook (120) and the synthesis signal of the codevector of the excitation codebook (140). A gain codebook (210) is searched using the corrected autocorrelation and a cross-correlation between a signal obtained by subtraction of the synthesis signal of the codevector of the adaptive codebook (120) from the input speech signal and the synthesis signal of the codevector of the excitation codebook (140). <IMAGE>

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for making liposomes, for example multivesicular liposomes (MVLs), containing one or more biologically active agents, wherein the loading of the active agents into the liposomes is modulated by adjusting the osmolarity of the aqueous component into which the agents are dissolved prior to encapsulation. To increase the loading of the active agent, the osmolarity of the aqueous component is reduced, and to decrease the loading of the active agent, the osmolarity of the aqueous component is increased. In the making of MVLs, the process involves dissolving the active agent and an optional osmotic excipient in a first aqueous component encapsulated within the liposomes. For any given concentration of drug, the osmolarity of the first aqueous component can be adjusted by increasing or decreasing the concentration or molecular weight of the osmotic excipients used therein. The rate of release of the active agent into the surrounding environment in which the liposomes are introduced can be simultaneously controlled by incorporating into the lipid component used in the formulation at least one long chain amphipathic lipid. For example, the amphipathic lipid can have from about 13 to about 28 carbons in its carbon chain. Use of the long chain amphipathic lipid in the lipid component is particularly helpful in controlling the release rate and encapsulation efficiency for high drug load formulations.
